I made this cake for a dinner party. I baked the cake in 2 9inch round pans and split the layers and filled them with the filling. I then frosted the cake with whipped ganache. In making the filling I used whipping cream instead of the milk and I only used probably about 1/4 cup of it. The cake was a serious showstopper, however it really didn't have much flavor. The fliing was bland and tasteless, so I think next time I am going to add more vanilla or maybe play with the idea of poking little holes in the cake and soaking in some Bailey's/ sugar mixture (heat through to evaporate the alcohol!) I will definitely try again with modifications!

i noticed the rating on this cake was a problem with with the cream filling,its wonderful.you must use shortening like i used crisco.not the oil it will mess it up .i used the crisco shortening ,butter and sugar anf beat it with a mixer ,let sit a few minutes warm your milkthe cool it .pour into the mixture and beat its beautiful and good .to make it look like the picture you need to doble the recipe.

This recipe did not work at all. Good concept but the filling was nowhere near the consistancy showed in the picture. I wonder if the recipe was written incorrectly.Update, tried this again because the flavor was very good. This time I doubled everything, but the milk...used 1cup of evap.milk and heated it just warm enough so it would dissolve the sugar. Used it with a layer cake, split the layers, added seedless raspberry jam, warmed and sread in a thin layer with the cream on top, between each layer. Chocolate glaze on top...it was delicious!!!!My guests were so impressed and still rave about it! Definitly worth a try. and would be 5 stars if it didn't need any changes!

Great flavor but filling is way way way too runny. I dumped out quite a bit of milk and continued whipping. Then it was alright, but in doing so I lost some of the sugar. If I ever do it again, I will cut the milk in half at least. But it tasted pretty good in the end.

AWESOME!!The only thing I had a problem with was the filling being very runny after adding the hot milk. I just took my mixing bowl and put it in the fridge for a while and then rewhipped it. It turned out great!!--GREAT RECIPE!
